Is my blog title accurate?

I titled my blog Tammy's Times thinking I would record much of what was happening in our lives. I thought our friends and family would be able to follow along no matter how far away. Instead, I have found that I don't seem to have the "Time" to update it very often. Maybe someday soon I'll figure out what to say and how to say it. Until then, I hope you have a great "time"!

School's Out!?!

Is it true? Are we really done with another year? Yes, we are! Friday was our last official day of school! We have decided to continue schooling lightly throughout the summer. As for a strict schedule, forget it. Now it's time to start preparing and organizing next years curriculum. Ugh, I guess I still have work to do. Wish me luck. I hope everyone has a great summer!

Jobs for America!

If we buy American, we'll create a need for more American workers. Jobs in the USA = Made in the USA! Here's a great place to start:

Annual Update

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that we're still here. Maybe when all the kids are in college I'll find time to maintain this page. LOL Until then I'll try to keep an eye on any comments.

Spring Fever

I'm not sure who has spring fever worse, the kids or myself! We've been working on a garden & can't wait to get it all in. It's our first one in about 4 years & the kids are excited. My daughter is waiting impatiently for the sunflowers to come up.
We're working on finishing up the school year and hope to be done in a couple weeks. I'm thrilled with how much they've learned this year & how independent they've become. They want to do more workbooks next year. That's fine with me because it'll mean less work for me. I'm looking at getting them AOP Lifepacs. My daughter wants me to hurry up & order them so she can start on them over the summer. Don't these kids know what summer vacation means? Just kidding, I'm tickled that they enjoy learning.
I still need to find more hands on activities for my 9 year old son. He likes building things, electrical stuff, anything to do with pipes, wires, wood, or science. I found a few things online that I know he would enjoy but they are so expensive. Any tips would be great!
Well, it's time to grade their math.

2009

Happy New Year! I plan to really start working on this site soon. I'm not sure how everyone finds the time, but with my family spread all over the U.S., I know this could become a fun way to connect.
